Dr Who Wednesday #8

Carrying on with my series of classic Doctor Who aliens in the Analogue Painting Challenge, I came to these chaps the other week. 

Ice Warriors

For the uninitiated, they are ice Warriors - an ancient race of  reptilian humanoids who ruled Mars until it became uninhabitable.  At various times they've been shown trying to transform Earth or other planets to their own requirements, as 'obvious baddies' who turn out to be much maligned or, in a double-bluff as goodies turning out to be baddies.

As their name suggests, they are a militaristic race, with their own complex hierarchies and a sense of bushido (useful in the trope - "Wait the green, scaly aliens are more honorable than the humans!"

So, these are seven 28mm figures from Black Tree Design.  The beauty of the old Dr Who aliens is they are never terribly complex paint-jobs.  If the BBC can spray-paint bubble-wrap green, who am I to aspire to much more?

I do have a couple of the officer-class, but they will have to wait for another time.
